In this special episode, Greg and George are joined by Kris of the Stone Age Gamer podcast and Geekade network as we cover one of the system's heavy hitters -- Super Metroid! One of the most popular and best selling video games of all time, Kris brings his vast love of the game and the franchise to the forefront as we discuss the game and what makes it so great.

In this episode Greg and George look at another Japanese only RPG -- Energy Breaker! Developed by the same company that made the Lufia games, this Final Fantasy Tactics like game is a refreshing take on the old RPG trope with some interesting ideas and some very hard gameplay. We discuss the game and what we think of it and how it holds up today. Any questions, comments, feedback, etc. can be left on our FB page or e-mailed to the snespodcast@yahoo.com.

In this episode George and Greg look at a Patreon requested game, the platformer Claymates! Made by the same company and using the same tech used in Clay Fighter, this is a bright and colorful game where you play as Clayton, a boy cursed by a witch doctor into a lump of clay to try to rescue your father. You have the power though to change into other animals to help you in your quest. We look at this game and how it plays, all the unique ideas and concepts in it, and how it holds up today.

In this episode Greg and George look at one of many movie to TV game conversions -- Three Ninjas Kick Back! Inspired to cover this game by a Facebook post lamenting how expensive this game was, the game was based off a movie which bombed compared to the original Three Ninjas movie, and that explains in large part the rarity. We talk about the game and if it deserves the high price, along with some sidetracks along the way.

In this episode Greg and George look at another Japanese only game -- Dragon Ball Z: Super Saiya Denetsu! This RPG game takes a lot from the DBZ cartoon and follows many of the same characters and tropes as you go through this unique game. A card battle system and a high degree of difficulty make this a much different RPG then you may have played. We talk about the game and a little about the DBZ franchise, how the game plays, and if it's worth playing.

In this episode Greg and George look at the run and gun action game Cybernator! Published by Konami in the west but not developed by them, this game has some similarities with Front Mission due to sharing a lead designer, and is a overlooked and very fun (but very hard) game. Listen to us talk about it in this episode and how it plays and if it holds up today. Any questions, comments, etc. can be left on our FB page or e-mailed to thesnespodcast@yahoo.com and as always thanks for your support! We also have a Patreon at www.patreon.com/thesnespodcast

In our first episode of 2019, George and Greg look at one of the most unique games on the system -- Firestriker! Developed and published by small companies, this highly unique game did not get a lot of press or copies made but combined elements of pinball, Breakout, and Zelda into a very interesting and challenging one to four player game. So does it hold up and is it fun? Tune in to find out!
